This is outgoing Mayor of #Napa Jill Techel. Jill has donated to Diane Feinstein, who fought to keep the Confederate Flag flying over San Francisco City Hall in 1984, Mike Thompson, who voted to allow more poisons in our waterways and who supports policies that rob the... 1/4
poor and give to the rich, and Hillary Clinton who rigged the 2016 primary and hand picked Donald Trump as her opponent, only to lose to him.
Jill only makes about $1000 per month as Mayor, yet she gave $2500 to establishment pick Beth Painter, $2000 to former Republican... 2/4
Bernie Narvaez and $5000 to Scott Sedgeley for Mayor. That's almost $10,000 an outgoing Mayor paid to influence the City Council. What results are Jill buying? Can it be a coincidence that all three are heavily in favor of (and being enriched by) endless development of... 3/4

@NapaRegister Why doesn't your paper cover local corruption like this? Why did your paper cover up the controversy of Sen. Dodd interfering in the college board race in 2018? Why don't you report on Supervisors taking pay-offs to allow deforestation?

This is the Open Corporates page for Peter T. Stravinski, real estate developer from Madera, CA, which is in between Fresno and Merced. I was strangely unable to find even one picture of Mr. Stravinski that I could say for sure was him. Mr. Stravinski is associated with... 1/5

Mr. Stravinski has somehow found himself in American Canyon, developing some of the low tax, low job warehouses that our city has allowed to be put in.

Too many people believe that corruption, once exposed, should be "gotten over", forgotten, that people should just move on, that to keep mentioning how @RepThompson voted to allow more poisons in our waterways or how our Supervisors voted to allow deforestation or even how...1/3
the DNC rigs primary elections, giving us a choice between corporate rule and fascism (essentially the same) is just "being negative", that we shouldn't name it.

I am so horribly disgusted at the reports I'm hearing of mass numbers of sexual assaults and then mass numbers of forced hysterectomies in the border camps that Latino refugees have been locked in, and frightened for the future of our country if these stories are true. 1/7
Unfortunately the news has become so partisan, and so rarely in agreement, that it's hard to know what's true and what's not.
I'm glad that there is going to be an investigation into these crimes, and if these stories are NOT true then whoever is making them up should be... 2/7

In 2016 almost 92 million people didn't vote at all in the general election. Almost 66 million voted for Clinton, almost 53 million for Trump. Only 10 million TOTAL voted for a third party or independent.
Of those 10 million people, almost 4.5 million voted for the... 1/10

Joy Reid made some #Islamophobic comments on Monday's show. She said that Trump uses violent language like leaders in the Islamic world. While it's true that some leaders use that kind of language, it is an ugly, intolerant generalization.
